Day 63 Yum! I love sprouts so much that I squealed giddy to find them at Safeway in Yakima. I was once hyper-vigilant about meeting protein numbers from fear of muscle loss. Plant-based meal planning has changed my game. #summer90daychallenge #thischangedmygame #2020socialsummer #buildingmybestme #makeshifthappen #lifestylenotdiet #mealppanning #plantbased #macros #vegan (at Wapato, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEnwyQyDoOf/?igshid=1nk5mp5pn473w

Day 32 First day of month two of Summer 90 Day Challenge is a foodie post. Mom’s homemade low carb banana-zucchini bread toasted, one square 93% cocoa chocolate with no sugar added, and non-dairy whipped cream with no sugar added. One bite is all you need to satisfy a once-a-year craving for s’mores. There was a time when I went all out with eating all kinds of stuff and didn’t know about the consequences in my health and wellbeing until it was nearly too late. It’s taken years and years for my entire body to recover from the DNA damage I caused from my lifestyle choices. I made a decision to stop punishing myself and focusing on what I can commit to on a daily basis for the long-haul. #summer90daychallenge #thischangedmygame #buildingmybestme #makeshifthappen #mealppanning #plantbased #smores #macros #vegan #slay (at Wapato, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDX_CtEDxc4/?igshid=u9qj7thom9ub

Day 10 . It’s #FlexFriday and #MuscleIsMagic! . I can kinda-sorta see my obliques. . Kinda. . I am not “dieting” and I am not doing two hours of cardio every to lean out. . My weight is exactly the same in both photos. Once the “cutting” process begins next spring, I will see more of abdominal muscle separation. That’s the last place the excess is released from. I can’t even offer you a theory as to why each individual physique has that “one area” where fat cells like to hang out at. . My arms and legs on the other hand get lean first. But no one looks at that as much as they look for the six pack abs. #Bodybuilding judges are supposed to also look for symmetry but in bikini division, they look at other “areas”. . Enough with the physique aesthetics stuff. . ✅I feel amazing on my plant-based protocols and DO NOT miss the endless hours of cardio. . ✅My hormones are balanced. . ✅My inflammatory response is healthy. . ✅My gut microbiome reconstruction has been a huge success! . A majority of you are not getting on a bikini competition stage so you can tune out that stuff. . How about improving your metabolic fitness long-term? . . . #summer90daychallenge #thischangedmygame #buildingmybestme #makeshifthappen #plantbased #zyiaactive #muscle #fitness #zyia #flex #fit (at Green Lake, Seattle) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCexJmfjFoT/?igshid=1fefwefa2hnkx

Carpe diem!🥳 . Affirmation is exhilarating!✨ . Today, I heard a very loud knock of opportunity and my adventurous self answered, opened and now I know that this whole plant-based health journey wasn’t just a fad or phase—it’s a lifestyle.🌱 . Millions buy into diet fads. . This amazing woman, owner of a holistic wellness practice with fitness studio inside, is going to be one of my power-partners in educating those who’s hearts and heads are ready to hear about transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle. . She is a force!💪🏽 . She allowed me to teach my virtual gym 50+ Fab Fitness class inside her clinic’s fitness studio so I could make her 1:30pm new patient opening fit nicely with my day. . Aside from an incredible Chiropractic treatment today, asked me about my eating and nutrition during her consultation, she’s a straightforward talker, and into taking selfies! What a bonus!📷 . Thank you, Dr. Michelle for saying “yes” and aligning with my huge vision to help serve others in the health and wellbeing!🙌🏾 . Who did you reach out to today that may be change your game? . . . @marconichiropracticandwellness #summer90daychallenge #thischangedmygame #buildingmybestme #makeshifthappen #plantbased #carpediem #goaldigger #newgoals #bosslady #vegan #pivot #slay https://www.instagram.com/p/CCcztATjamr/?igshid=9f51204sdrmy
